Q. >>>What the hell are we doing in Afghanistan anyway?<<<

A. Obviously dropping some big ass bombs. Why do you ask?

I mean I know once upon a time after 9-11 we went in there to kick ass and get bin Laden. But Bush scuttled that attempt in the early 2000’s and the went on his stupid Iraq venture.

So Bush’s objective became muddled and confused as I think Bush himself was, and then comes Obama who was even more confused and somehow through it all we’re still in Afghanistan.

I think finally in Trump we’ve got someone who if we don’t have a clear reason and object in our being there he’ll get us the hell out. But of course that doesn’t explain the big ass bomb.

If we have a clear legitimate objective in protecting America and her interests by being in Afghanistan now, I have no problem with that. I just think it should be made clear to the American People what those reasons are. I mean are we going after ISIS there? If not, why are we there?
